In Milwaukee, they went to UHF, way early. You can imagine how many UHF converters were sold. They were pretty pricey back then.
It seemed the UHF stations were extremly weak. Our set had a Standard Coil cascode tuner, that had UHF strips. The UHF reception wasn't that great.
We had two VHF channels before that.
